It's Always Hotter Somewhere Else

Ash in recovery mode..

Today was hot....incredibly hot..one of the hottest days of the year.

It doesn't matter...it can always be worse.

Somewhere else it's a helluva hotter....

Someone else is wearing full battle dress uniforms carrying 50-60lbs of gear....patrolling the streets.

You got to be "hot" for less than a hour...

They get to be "hot" for hours on end...

The next time you want to complain about something...do yourself a favor and those around you a favor.

KEEP YOUR MOUTH SHUT.

You go from an air conditioned house to an air conditioned car to an air conditioned office back to your car and back to your house.

Is it really that awful for you? If it's just sooo terrible that you find the overwhelming desire to pronounce your weakness, that you have a significant inability to suffer...don't do it around me. It just really pisses me off...

-Rant over....

Today we hit up the first of the "Tough Mudder Tuesdays"...and it was nasty.

Start off with a run to the stop light.. then
15-14-13-12-....3-2-1 of
wall ball
step ups
weighted situps

After you completed round 8, you hit another run..then you finished with a run. It was long..and very wizard friendly.

thank you Shep for the BDU idea..you always make me better

To all those who showed up and braved the heat full well knowing it was going to a very challenging workout. Be proud of yourself, when you wake up in the morning you know you chose strength, the hard road over the easy path. For those who didn't show because it was "too hot", or because you knew the workout was gonna be hard...STOP LETTING FEAR DICTATE YOUR LIFE.

For greatness to be achieved, there must be great challenge present. Step up and relish the challenge. Eliminate weakness from your life....no one likes a whiner.

For those who want to challenge....we welcome you tomorrow for the weekly Wednesday 5pm intro. Just make sure you're drinking plenty of water!

See you at the compound!
